Building the impossible DJ deckstand

[kooper1980]

Looking really sweet steeevo!! Maybe when you've finished this you could go into business making these for other forum members!! I only need to fit an s4 in mine so not too much cutting out!!

Nice.. very nice.

I see a lot of clamps... is it glued only (or are there nails)? Great bit of work... love to see projects go from idea to completion. Thx

Don't think I would want to make loads of these, it takes a long time to make cos I like to get things right. I have not used any nails, everything has been biscuit joined and glued. I didn't want to use nails/screws because then I would have had to fill the holes.

Nice how much do you reckon its costing you to build ?

[Steeevo]

Errrr well i have used
1 x sheet 4ft x8ft 1" mdf @ £28
2 x wood glue @ £4 each
1 x metre length of 5x5" poplar (tulip wood) £40

I work at a hire firm and have had free use of all tools like sash clamps, router, biscuit joiner, orbital sander, jigsaw, belt sander

Here is a video someone posted on the last thread on dj forums pretty interesting. this is how i would have made it if i was a carpenter and had all the tools and a workshop

The Project has been slowing down due to the run up of christmas. but this is where i am at now.

having glued the legs to the top and bolted it with m12 coach screws, i think this should hold it!!!!!

Thanks for making this post it will give me a great reference point when making my own production/dj desk in the spring. I will make my own post and provide detailed pictures for everyone once the building phase begins.
